What You're Up Against
Level 527 paints Rainbow with 388 tiles across 5 colors, split into 14 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Navy: 102 tiles → cubes of 49, 24, 22, 7
- Cyan: 86 tiles → cubes of 51, 28, 7
- Violet: 74 tiles → cubes of 40, 25, 9
- Teal: 66 tiles → cubes of 33, 33
- Purple: 60 tiles → cubes of 49, 11
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Purple 49, Purple 11
🔒 1 locked cube — free the cube above them before they can be picked.
Step-by-Step Solution
This loading order was computed from the web level layout with a reachability-first strategy: always feed the ants colors they can actually reach, and never let all 5 slots fill with blocked colors. Tap hidden “?” cubes only when you have slot room to absorb a surprise color.
Load the cubes in this order, letting the ants work between picks. Unless noted, a cube's tiles are fully reachable when you send it.
- Send the Purple 11 cube.
- Send the Violet 9 cube.
- Send the Navy 22 cube.
- Send the Navy 7 cube.
- Send the Cyan 7 cube.
- Send the Teal 33 cube. Only ~28 of its 33 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Purple 49 cube. Only ~24 of its 49 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Cyan 28 cube. Only ~27 of its 28 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Cyan 51 cube. Only ~25 of its 51 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Navy 24 cube.
- Send the Navy 49 cube. Only ~29 of its 49 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Violet 25 cube.
- Send the Violet 40 cube. Only ~24 of its 40 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Teal 33 cube.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
